Coordination of Benefits (COB) electronic billing is now possible for Federal Employee Program (FEP) members
Regence can accept electronic submission of Coordination of Benefits (COB) claims using standard Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), American National Standards Institute (ANSI) formats. Submitting both institutional and professional COB claims on paper is no longer required. This applies to all Regence products, including the Federal Employee Program (FEP).
If you are interested in submitting COB claims electronically, please verify with your practice management software vendor that your billing program has the capacity to do so. The information submitted on the secondary claim should include the amount the other carrier approved, the amount paid and the patient balance.
If you have questions about submitting electronic COB claims, please contact your software vendor. Vendors or clearinghouses may contact our Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Support Center toll-free at 1 (800) 713-1693 or via email.
